Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the field of hydraulic circuit apparatus technology including an excavator operation control method and, more particularly, relates to a method for improving excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator.
- a hydraulic excavator is currently widely used in occasions of building constructions such as housing foundation excavation and backfilling, pipeline laying and farmland water resource construction.
- An excavator has advantages in allowing flexible construction and having high execution efficiency.
- a hydraulic excavator is mainly configured by components such as a work device, a rotation mechanism, a travel mechanism, a rotating platform, and a hydraulic control device. Lifting and lowering of a boom, extending and contracting of a stick, rotating of a bucket and rotating of a rotary device are all realized by the control device to control a multiplexer valve group to allocate hydraulic oil supplied to hydraulic pumps via a hydraulic circuit.
- An excavating operation at a construction site usually involves a combination of a long-time excavating operation and a land grading operation. Therefore, under the premise of not affecting operation efficiency, both excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator are highly demanded by an operator.
- the so-called excavating operation characteristic refers to a comprehensive judgment regarding stability, smoothness, and maneuver responsiveness of an excavator during an excavating operation. Among these, the smoothness and the maneuver responsiveness of the excavating operation are of most concern to an operator.
- a reasonable ratio of movement speeds of a boom cylinder and a stick cylinder of an excavator directly determines the excavating operation characteristic of the excavator and directly affects use efficiency of the excavator and operation experience of the operator.
- Best matching of cylinder movement speeds is achieved by controlling the openings/closings and a degree of opening of a valve spool of a hydraulic control valve via pilot oil of a hydraulic control system of the excavator.
- a valve corresponding to the valve spool is opened to connect to an oil passage of a main pump. Controlling over extension and contraction and a speed of a cylinder movement are achieved by connecting oil passages and by controlling flow rates of the oil passages.
- a work device During an excavating operation of a conventional excavator, a work device has a large acceleration. A sudden stop at a high speed or a sudden start is often accompanied with large shaking and rocking of the whole excavator, which affects comfortability and smoothness of an excavating operation of an excavator and increases tiredness of an operator and thus affects operation efficiency. Lifetime of an excavator operating under such a condition is reduced. Further, frequent switching of a hydraulic pump between no-load and high-load states increases engine load. Fuel consumption and operating costs both increase.
- Grading operation characteristic of an excavator is an important use characteristic after the excavating operation characteristic, and is mainly used in the following work conditions: excavating a trench for pipe laying; land grading, slope repairing, and the like.
- the grading operation characteristic of an excavator can be directly linked to design parameters of the excavator.
- a conventional excavator has the following problems during a land grading operation: Boom lifting is too fast; reciprocating speed of a stick is poor; and the bucket speed is not coordinated and synchronized with a combined movement of the boom and the stick. Thus, performance of a grading operation is directly affected.
- a main reason for slow lifting of a boom is that, in a conventional design, an oil supply method of using double pump confluence is adopted for increase excavating speed of a bucket.
- double pump oil supply oil is simultaneously supplied to a boom cylinder, a stick cylinder and a bucket cylinder.
- the present disclosure provides a method for improving the excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator.
- comfortability during excavating operation and grading operation is improved without causing negative effect on operation efficiency.
- the present disclosure provides a method for improving excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator.
- a hydraulically controlled selector valve is added to a control circuit controlling boom confluence in a hydraulic excavator.
- a solenoid valve group is added to a boom confluence control circuit and a stick confluence control circuit.
- a controller sends out a control signal to perform switching between a disconnected mode and a connected mode of the solenoid valve group.
- the controller sends out a signal to disconnect the solenoid valve group, restore a valve spool to a middle position, restore a boom lifting confluence circuit, and disconnect a stick swinging confluence circuit to achieve a standard excavation mode.
- the controller sends out a signal to connect the solenoid valve group.
- the solenoid valve group disconnects a boom lifting confluence circuit and increases a stick swinging confluence circuit to achieve a grading operation mode.
- a pressure sensing end of the hydraulically controlled selector valve detects a control pressure signal of stick excavation.
- a control pressure value of the stick excavation is smaller than a change-direction pressure of the hydraulically controlled selector valve, the hydraulically controlled selector valve does not change direction.
- Hydraulic oil of a pilot control oil passage controlling a boom cylinder and a stick cylinder is entirely supplied by a double pump after confluence.
- the hydraulically controlled selector valve changes direction.
- a boom confluence control circuit is disconnected and oil is independently supplied to a boom by a single pump, while a stick excavation double pump confluence circuit is maintained.
- an electrical signal controlling end of the solenoid valve group is connected with the controller.
- the controller sends out a change-direction command to the solenoid valve group.
- the solenoid valve group changes direction.
- a pilot control oil passage changes allocation of a double pump confluence.
- a confluence control circuit of boom lifting hydraulic oil is disconnected and is replaced by using a single pump to supply oil. Stick excavation maintains double pump confluence, and a hydraulic oil passage of stick swinging is increased to double pump confluence.
- the change-direction pressure of the hydraulically controlled selector valve is adjusted by a pressure adjustment spring inside the valve.
- a set of pressure-adjustable hydraulically controlled selector valves is added. Connection and disconnection of a corresponding control circuit is controlled by varying change-direction of the hydraulically controlled selector valve, thereby changing a changeless confluence oil supply mode in the conventional technology.
- By changing the confluence mode reasonable allocation of a flow of a main pump is realized. Thereby, utilization efficiency of the flow of the main pump during stick excavation is improved, and power utilization efficiency of an engine is improved.
- By selectively connect and disconnect boom confluence hydraulic impact during boom lifting is reduced, thereby improving operator comfortability during operation. An operator can intentionally select between an excavating operation mode and grading operation mode.
- the solenoid valve group is controlled to change a confluence control circuit to selectively enhance a fast reciprocating movement function of a stick that is required in a grading operation while reducing hydraulic flow in a boom lifting circuit. This reduces a hydraulic impact, improves comfortability during a grading operation, and achieves the best land grading effect at a lowest level of complexity.
- Beneficial effects of the present disclosure include the following.
- various actions can be coordinated and synchronized. Utilization efficiency and operational comfortability of the excavator can be improved while reducing production and maintenance cost and significantly improving operation efficiency.

- a boom confluence hydraulic oil passage supplied by the P 1 hydraulic oil of the double hydraulic pump 1 is disconnected. Instead, the P 2 hydraulic oil independently supplies the boom lifting.
- the P 1 hydraulic oil of the double hydraulic pump 1 independently supplies the stick excavation operation and at the same time merges with the P 2 hydraulic oil.
- the flow of the stick excavation hydraulic oil circuit is larger than the flow of the boom lifting circuit. Therefore, the stick excavation speed is relatively fast; the boom lifting is relatively smooth; hydraulic impact of the work device is reduced; and operation comfortability is improved.
- the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 When the operator feels that the excavation state ends and the pressure supplied by the ARM CROWD end of the left control lever valve 6 to the pressure sensing end a 2 of the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 is lower than the pressure for direction changing, the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 is restored to a middle position state; the hydraulic oil passage is restored to the “standard excavation mode” illustrated in FIG. 2 ; boom lifting confluence is restored; boom lifting is accelerated; and work efficiency is improved.

Since the boom lifting confluence is disconnected and is replaced by using a single pump to supply oil, the boom flow impact is relatively small, operation is smooth, and operator comfortability is also greatly improved.

Description
- This application claims the priority to International Application No. PCT/CN2012/070199, filed on Jan. 10, 2012, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201110003932.8, filed on Jan. 11, 2011, the entire contents of all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- The present disclosure relates to the field of hydraulic circuit apparatus technology including an excavator operation control method and, more particularly, relates to a method for improving excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator.
- A hydraulic excavator is currently widely used in occasions of building constructions such as housing foundation excavation and backfilling, pipeline laying and farmland water resource construction. An excavator has advantages in allowing flexible construction and having high execution efficiency. A hydraulic excavator is mainly configured by components such as a work device, a rotation mechanism, a travel mechanism, a rotating platform, and a hydraulic control device. Lifting and lowering of a boom, extending and contracting of a stick, rotating of a bucket and rotating of a rotary device are all realized by the control device to control a multiplexer valve group to allocate hydraulic oil supplied to hydraulic pumps via a hydraulic circuit. An excavating operation at a construction site usually involves a combination of a long-time excavating operation and a land grading operation. Therefore, under the premise of not affecting operation efficiency, both excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator are highly demanded by an operator.
- The so-called excavating operation characteristic refers to a comprehensive judgment regarding stability, smoothness, and maneuver responsiveness of an excavator during an excavating operation. Among these, the smoothness and the maneuver responsiveness of the excavating operation are of most concern to an operator. A reasonable ratio of movement speeds of a boom cylinder and a stick cylinder of an excavator directly determines the excavating operation characteristic of the excavator and directly affects use efficiency of the excavator and operation experience of the operator. Best matching of cylinder movement speeds is achieved by controlling the openings/closings and a degree of opening of a valve spool of a hydraulic control valve via pilot oil of a hydraulic control system of the excavator. A valve corresponding to the valve spool is opened to connect to an oil passage of a main pump. Controlling over extension and contraction and a speed of a cylinder movement are achieved by connecting oil passages and by controlling flow rates of the oil passages.
- During an excavating operation of a conventional excavator, a work device has a large acceleration. A sudden stop at a high speed or a sudden start is often accompanied with large shaking and rocking of the whole excavator, which affects comfortability and smoothness of an excavating operation of an excavator and increases tiredness of an operator and thus affects operation efficiency. Lifetime of an excavator operating under such a condition is reduced. Further, frequent switching of a hydraulic pump between no-load and high-load states increases engine load. Fuel consumption and operating costs both increase.
- Grading operation characteristic of an excavator is an important use characteristic after the excavating operation characteristic, and is mainly used in the following work conditions: excavating a trench for pipe laying; land grading, slope repairing, and the like. In a conventional technology, the grading operation characteristic of an excavator can be directly linked to design parameters of the excavator. Once a product design is completed, movement speeds of a boom cylinder, a stick cylinder and a bucket cylinder are fixed. Therefore, during a land grading operation, the movement speed of the boom, stick and bucket is a constant parameter. A conventional excavator has the following problems during a land grading operation: Boom lifting is too fast; reciprocating speed of a stick is poor; and the bucket speed is not coordinated and synchronized with a combined movement of the boom and the stick. Thus, performance of a grading operation is directly affected.
- During a grading operation, a main reason for slow lifting of a boom is that, in a conventional design, an oil supply method of using double pump confluence is adopted for increase excavating speed of a bucket. In double pump oil supply, oil is simultaneously supplied to a boom cylinder, a stick cylinder and a bucket cylinder. When an excavator performs a lifting operation during excavating or trenching, since a large amount of hydraulic oil is lost too early due to confluence of the bucket cylinder, amount of hydraulic oil supplied to the boom cylinder is reduced, causing uncoordinated moving speeds. In fact, directly adding a corresponding flow control valve in a circuit of the boom cylinder, the stick cylinder and the bucket cylinder can also adjust to some extent a combined operation effect of an executing element to alleviate a speed mismatch problem. However, because a size of a flow-control orifice is hard to be reasonably determined, effects obtained by adopting this method do not provide generalized significance. In addition, this method increases complexities and difficulties in pipeline design and adjustment, and occupies the limited control pipeline of a control valve.
- To solve the above-described problems in conventional technologies, the present disclosure provides a method for improving the excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator. By improving a control method, comfortability during excavating operation and grading operation is improved without causing negative effect on operation efficiency.
- To achieve the above object, the present disclosure provides a method for improving excavating operation characteristic and grading operation characteristic of an excavator. In this method, a hydraulically controlled selector valve is added to a control circuit controlling boom confluence in a hydraulic excavator. A solenoid valve group is added to a boom confluence control circuit and a stick confluence control circuit. A controller sends out a control signal to perform switching between a disconnected mode and a connected mode of the solenoid valve group. The controller sends out a signal to disconnect the solenoid valve group, restore a valve spool to a middle position, restore a boom lifting confluence circuit, and disconnect a stick swinging confluence circuit to achieve a standard excavation mode. The controller sends out a signal to connect the solenoid valve group. The solenoid valve group disconnects a boom lifting confluence circuit and increases a stick swinging confluence circuit to achieve a grading operation mode.
- In the standard excavation mode, a pressure sensing end of the hydraulically controlled selector valve detects a control pressure signal of stick excavation. When a control pressure value of the stick excavation is smaller than a change-direction pressure of the hydraulically controlled selector valve, the hydraulically controlled selector valve does not change direction. Hydraulic oil of a pilot control oil passage controlling a boom cylinder and a stick cylinder is entirely supplied by a double pump after confluence. When the control pressure value of the stick excavation reaches the change-direction pressure of the hydraulically controlled selector valve, the hydraulically controlled selector valve changes direction. A boom confluence control circuit is disconnected and oil is independently supplied to a boom by a single pump, while a stick excavation double pump confluence circuit is maintained.
- In the grading operation mode, an electrical signal controlling end of the solenoid valve group is connected with the controller. The controller sends out a change-direction command to the solenoid valve group. After receiving the command, the solenoid valve group changes direction. A pilot control oil passage changes allocation of a double pump confluence. A confluence control circuit of boom lifting hydraulic oil is disconnected and is replaced by using a single pump to supply oil. Stick excavation maintains double pump confluence, and a hydraulic oil passage of stick swinging is increased to double pump confluence.
- The change-direction pressure of the hydraulically controlled selector valve is adjusted by a pressure adjustment spring inside the valve.
- Operation Principle
- Based on the conventional technology, a set of pressure-adjustable hydraulically controlled selector valves is added. Connection and disconnection of a corresponding control circuit is controlled by varying change-direction of the hydraulically controlled selector valve, thereby changing a changeless confluence oil supply mode in the conventional technology. By changing the confluence mode, reasonable allocation of a flow of a main pump is realized. Thereby, utilization efficiency of the flow of the main pump during stick excavation is improved, and power utilization efficiency of an engine is improved. By selectively connect and disconnect boom confluence, hydraulic impact during boom lifting is reduced, thereby improving operator comfortability during operation. An operator can intentionally select between an excavating operation mode and grading operation mode. The solenoid valve group is controlled to change a confluence control circuit to selectively enhance a fast reciprocating movement function of a stick that is required in a grading operation while reducing hydraulic flow in a boom lifting circuit. This reduces a hydraulic impact, improves comfortability during a grading operation, and achieves the best land grading effect at a lowest level of complexity.
- Beneficial effects of the present disclosure include the following. In the excavating operation and the grading operation, various actions can be coordinated and synchronized. Utilization efficiency and operational comfortability of the excavator can be improved while reducing production and maintenance cost and significantly improving operation efficiency.
- It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the disclosure, as claimed. Other aspects of the present disclosure can be understood by those skilled in the art in light of the description, the claims, and the drawings of the present disclosure.

- In a first embodiment, as illustrated in
FIGS. 1 , 2 and 3, in a “standard excavation mode,” when a hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 does not change a direction, an operator controls a rightcontrol lever valve 5 to cause a boom lifting pilot control circuit to be connected. Hydraulic oil enters a rightcontrol lever valve 5 from ahydraulic oil tank 3 via a gear pump 2 and control oil that is supplied to asolenoid valve group 4 enters end P1 via a BOOM UP end. In this case, a P1 oil passage and a control oil output end A1 of thesolenoid valve group 4 are in a, connected state. - Pilot oil flows into a control oil input end a1 of the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 via a control oil output end A1. At this point, the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 does not reach a pressure condition that is required for changing a direction. Therefore, the control oil input end a1 and a control oil output end b1 of the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 are connected.
- The pilot oil pushes a valve spool of a multiplexer valve group 8 to change direction. P1 hydraulic oil of a double
hydraulic pump 1 is involved in a boom lifting confluence. Control oil of another channel that is input via the BOOM UP end is connected with a control end XAb1 of the multiplexer valve group 8. After the valve spool changes direction, P2 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 merges with P1 hydraulic oil to achieve boom lifting (boom cylinder 10 extends out). Hydraulic oil in a rod chamber of theboom cylinder 10 flows back via the multiplexer valve group 8 and, thereafter, returns to thehydraulic oil tank 3 via an oil return port R2, forming a complete boom lifting operation circuit. - A left control lever valve 6 is controlled to cause a stick excavation pilot control circuit to be connected. Control oil entering the left control lever valve 6 via the gear pump 2 is connected to a pilot control end XAa2 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via an ARM CROWD end to cause a remaining flow of the P2 hydraulic oil of the double
hydraulic pump 1 to be supplied to a stick excavation operation (stick cylinder 9 extends out). Control oil of the left control lever valve 6 of another channel is connected to a pilot control end XAa1 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via the ARM CROWD end and pushes the valve spool in the multiplexer valve group 8 to change direction to cause a remaining flow of the P1 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 to participate in the stick excavation operation. - A portion of hydraulic oil in a rod chamber of the stick cylinder 9 participates in confluence of the P1 hydraulic oil and the P2 hydraulic oil via a ‘hydraulic oil recovery circuit’ in the multiplexer valve group 8 and another portion returns to the
hydraulic oil tank 3 via an oil return channel in the multiplexer valve group 8. Thereby, a complete stick excavation operation circuit is formed. - When pressure supplied from the ARM CROWD end of the left control lever valve 6 to the pressure sensing end a2 of the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 has reached a certain value (that is, when a swing angle of a handle of the left control lever valve 6 has reached a certain angle), the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 changes direction. The pilot control oil passage that previously connects to the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 from a control oil output end A1 of the
solenoid valve group 4 is disconnected. - A control end XAb2 of the multiplexer valve group 8 connects to the
hydraulic oil tank 3 via the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7. The valve spool returns back to a middle position state. A boom confluence hydraulic oil passage supplied by the P1 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 is disconnected. Instead, the P2 hydraulic oil independently supplies the boom lifting. In this case, the P1 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 independently supplies the stick excavation operation and at the same time merges with the P2 hydraulic oil. In this state, the flow of the stick excavation hydraulic oil circuit is larger than the flow of the boom lifting circuit. Therefore, the stick excavation speed is relatively fast; the boom lifting is relatively smooth; hydraulic impact of the work device is reduced; and operation comfortability is improved. - When the operator feels that the excavation state ends and the pressure supplied by the ARM CROWD end of the left control lever valve 6 to the pressure sensing end a2 of the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 is lower than the pressure for direction changing, the hydraulically controlled selector valve 7 is restored to a middle position state; the hydraulic oil passage is restored to the “standard excavation mode” illustrated in
FIG. 2 ; boom lifting confluence is restored; boom lifting is accelerated; and work efficiency is improved. - In a second embodiment, as illustrated in
FIGS. 1 , 4 and 5, when in a ‘grading operation mode,’ after thesolenoid valve group 4 receives a change-direction command, the valve spool changes direction. - When performing a combined action operation of boom lifting and stick excavating, the right
control lever valve 5 is controlled to cause the boom lifting pilot control circuit to be connected. Hydraulic oil enters the rightcontrol lever valve 5 from thehydraulic oil tank 3 via the gear pump 2 and thereafter reaches the control end XAb1 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via the BOOM UP end. After the valve spool changes direction, the P2 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 independently supplies oil to achieve boom lifting (boom cylinder 10 extends out). Hydraulic oil in the rod chamber of theboom cylinder 10 flows back via the multiplexer valve group 8 and, thereafter, returns to thehydraulic oil tank 3 via the R2 end, forming a complete boom lifting operation circuit. - The left control lever valve 6 is controlled to cause the stick excavation pilot control circuit to be connected. Control oil entering the left control lever valve 6 via the gear pump 2 is connected to the pilot control end XAa2 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via the ARM CROWD end to cause a remaining flow of the P2 hydraulic oil of the double
hydraulic pump 1 to be supplied to a stick adduction operation (stick cylinder 9 extends out). Control oil of the left control lever valve 6 of another channel is connected to the pilot control end XAa1 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via the ARM CROWD end and pushes the valve spool in the multiplexer valve group 8 to change direction to cause all of the P1 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 to participate in the stick adduction operation. A portion of hydraulic oil in the rod chamber of the stick cylinder 9 participates in confluence of the P1 hydraulic oil and the P2 hydraulic oil via the ‘hydraulic oil recovery circuit’ in the multiplexer valve group 8 and another portion returns to thehydraulic oil tank 3 via the oil return channel in the multiplexer valve group 8. Thereby, a complete stick excavation operation circuit is formed. - When performing a combined action operation of boom lifting and stick swinging, the right
control lever valve 5 is controlled to cause the boom lifting pilot control circuit to be connected. Hydraulic oil enters the rightcontrol lever valve 5 from thehydraulic oil tank 3 via the gear pump 2 and thereafter reaches the control end XAb1 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via the BOOM UP end. After the valve spool changes direction, the P2 hydraulic oil of the doublehydraulic pump 1 independently supplies oil to achieve boom lifting (boom cylinder 10 extends out). Hydraulic oil in a rod chamber of theboom cylinder 10 flows back via the multiplexer valve group 8 and, thereafter, returns to thehydraulic oil tank 3 via an oil return port R2, forming a complete boom lifting operation circuit. - The left control lever valve 6 is controlled to cause a stick swinging pilot control circuit to be connected. Control oil entering the left control lever valve 6 via the gear pump 2 is connected to a pilot control end XBa1 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via the ARM DUMP end. The valve spool is controlled to change direction to cause all of the P1 hydraulic oil of the double hydraulic pump to be supplied to a stick swinging (that is, recovery of a piston rod of the stick cylinder 9) circuit. The control oil of the left control lever valve 6 is connected to a pilot control end XBa2 of the multiplexer valve group 8 via another channel of the ARM DUMP end and then via the control oil input end P2 of the
solenoid valve group 4. - The valve spool of the multiplexer valve group 8 changes direction to cause a remaining flow of the P2 hydraulic oil of the double
hydraulic pump 1 to merge with the P1 hydraulic oil and then to be supplied to a stick swinging operation (recovery of the stick cylinder 9). Hydraulic oil in a rodless chamber of the stick cylinder 9 returns to thehydraulic oil tank 3 via the oil return port R2 of the multiplexer valve group 8. Thereby, a complete circuit is formed. Since double pump confluence is achieved for the stick swinging operation, the flow rate is increased. - Stick swinging speed is significantly better than that of using a single pump and can meet requirement for fast stick swinging back and forth during a land grading operation, and thus improves the operation efficiency of the stick during a land grading operation. Since the boom lifting confluence is disconnected and is replaced by using a single pump to supply oil, the boom flow impact is relatively small, operation is smooth, and operator comfortability is also greatly improved.
- Other applications, advantages, alternations, modifications, or equivalents to the disclosed embodiments are obvious to those skilled in the art.
